BLACK (and Blonde) AND BEAUTIFUL

 {Via}

It's not to often that you see an African-American woman with blonde hair. I'm thinking about joining the ranks of the few, the blonde, the black.  The cut/color in the second photo is exactly what I want...it's just a matter of taking the plunge i.e. cutting off my long dark brown tresses.  But it's all worth it in the name of Fashion right? It always is.

VS.

As I'm sure you've all seen/heard the 70's are back! Well at least the fashion trends. I mean there was that brief stint in the early 2000's with the Mudd bell bottoms trend but...that was pretty weird. Now its a way more prominent, stand out look for Spring. It's hard to turn your head and not spot a babe sporting bell bottoms/flared pants, chunky wooden platforms, or a flowy floral prints. Now let's just bring back Wood Stock, Free Love, Fros and Discos and we can call it a day.

How do you feel about this trend?

Love it  ??

Over it ??

I'm kind of in a love hate relationship with it. I do love the era and I love that it's being interpreted in a modernized way. But I also think fashion just keeps turning back to the old instead of creating new. I understand everything is in some way inspired and influenced by the past but come on. Let's see something COMPLETELY original. I'm ready for a new era. I'm ready to be wowed again.
